Solved Windows won't even boot in safe mood

[pillyg]

Hi, I have a Lenovo Z560 laptop
Quad core i5-480m 2.67 Ghz
4gb DDR3
500gb HDD
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
Intel HD graphics ( )

A few days ago I got the "iertutil.dll could not be found" error (dont remember exactly what it said). Some programs wouldn't open or some features of them wouldn't work. I googled it and fount that it was a runtime for Internet Explorer. I redownloaded the file and replaced it but that didn't work. Then I got a program that was supposed to fix the error. Nothing. Still bad.

The next day I went to run CCleaner to look for .dll errors, but that wouldn't open. I got the error 0xc000007B. It also said the application failed to initialize. I tried some other programs and 3 piriform programs I had gave the same error. I googled the error code and people said It was linked to the Worm_Klez.e virus. I scanned using 2 different Klez removal tools and they both found no virus.

That night I tried to start the computer in safe mode the boot manager came up and it said "Windows failed to start...
Status: 0xc000025
Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible."

What to do!!!

I ended up reinstalling windows from the recovery partition. My computer had a one touch recovery button (thank goodness). I would have done that sooner, but I made a RESTORE disk instead of a RECOVERY disk.
